Using your toothbrush

Brushing techniques

Wet brush head and apply any kind of toothpaste. To avoid splashing, guide the brush head to your teeth before switching on the appliance (picture 2).
When brushing your teeth with one of the Oral-B oscillating-rotating brush heads guide the brush head slowly from tooth to tooth, spending a few seconds on each tooth surface (picture 5).
When using the Oral-B «TriZone» brush head place the toothbrush bristles against the teeth at a slight angle towards the gumline.
Apply light pressure and start brushing in back and forth motions, just like you would do with a manual toothbrush (picture 6).
With any brush head start brushing the outsides, then the insides and finally the chewing surfaces. Brush all four quadrants of your mouth equally.
Do not press too hard, simply let the brush do all the work.
You may also consult your dentist or dental hygienist about the right technique for you.

Oral-B brush heads feature light blue INDICATOR bristles to help you monitor brush head replacement need. With thorough brushing, twice a day for two minutes, the blue color will fade halfway approximately within 3 months, indicating the need to replace your brush head. If the bristles splay before the color recedes, you may exert too much pressure on teeth and gums.
We do not recommend using the Oral-B «Floss Action» or Oral-B «3DWhite» brush head with braces. You may use the Oral-B «Ortho» brush head, specifically designed to clean around braces and wires.

Pressure Sensor

Helping protect your Oral B Pro 500 Electric Toothbrushand gums from hard brushing, your toothbrush has a pressure control feature installed. If too much pressure is applied, the red pressure sensor light (b) will light up, reminding you to reduce pressure (picture 4) (depending on model). In addition the movement of the brush head will continue but its pulsation will stop and you will also hear a different sound while brushing. Periodically check the operation of the pressure sensor by pressing lightly on the brush head during use.

Professional Timer

A short stuttering sound at 30-second intervals reminds you to brush equally all four quadrants of your mouth.(picture 3)
A long stuttering sound indicates the end of the professionally recommended 2-minute brushing time. The elapsed brushing time is memorized even when the handle is briefly switched off during brushing. When pausing longer than 30 seconds the timer resets.

In the first days of using any electric toothbrush, your gums may bleed slightly. In general, bleeding should stop after a few days. Should it persist after 2 weeks, please consult your dentist or dental hygienist. If you have sensitive teeth and/or gums, Oral-B recommends using the «Sensitive» mode (depending on model
